Fearful of ban, frenzied buyers swarm gun stores

"The phones at Red's Trading Post wouldn't stop ringing. Would-be customers from as far away as New York wanted to know if the Twin Falls, Idaho gun shop had firearms in stock. Others clamored to find out if their orders had been shipped."

Absolutely ridiculous. I'm not big on "predictions", but here's one for the New Year: the most that Congress will do on gun control is to close the gun show loophole. They will be too cowed by the NRA to pass anything else, especially the assault weapons ban. – Wes
